Fat cells on the bottom of the body store fat six times more readily than fat cells on the upper part of the body and release them six times less readily. Thus weight loss from the lower body is almost impossible without the upper body suffering.

Furthermore, as we get older, the fat becomes less and less available for metabolism, developing into the situation where the fat is eventually totally unavailable. Mechanisms other than age and hormonal changes may also play their part in this scenario; pesticides, chemicals and trans-fatty acids are all becoming implicated.  This means that whilst fat can be stored, it cannot be released. Sensible eating and exercise maintain the body in good health but may not be able to remove these fatty stores. This is why we tend to put on stubborn weight with age and certain hormonal events such as pregnancy and the menopause.

 Body shape and weight problems have to be treated sympathetically in the knowledge of these facts.

We use the homeopathic medication, Metabolites, in our lipotherapy treatments. This is injected directly into the unwanted fatty tissue. This is not painful and does not really swell as such. Sometimes a small bruise may occur. The treatment is repeated every week or two weeks certainly for four treatments. After four treatments results should be visible. More treatments may be necessary, depending on the size of the problem to be treated. Homeopathy is not necessarily a fast fix, but it is safe and without side effects. Sensible eating of natural pesticide free foods and exercise will aid results and ensure that the fat is removed from these stubborn areas.
